JUST IN: Florida Governor Ron DeSantis Directs Florida Secretary of State Laurel M. Lee to Investigate Facebook for Alleged Violations of Election Laws

Florida State Governor Ron DeSantis directed Secretary of State Laurel M. Lee to investigate Facebook for alleged election interference, following a bombshell report that the tech giant put its thumb on the scale of numerous state and local races by exempting elite users from Facebook’s own rules.

“It’s no secret that Big Tech censors have long enforced their own rules inconsistently,” said Governor Ron DeSantis. “If this new report is true, Facebook has violated Florida law to put its thumb on the scale of numerous state and local races. Floridians deserve to know how much this corporate titan has influenced our elections. That is why I am directing Secretary Lee to use all legal means to uncover violations of Florida’s election laws. The thought of Facebook clandestinely manipulating elections is an affront to the basic principles of our republic. We the people have the right to choose our representatives, whether or not Silicon Valley approves.”

In a letter sent to Secretary of State Laurel M. Lee, Governor RonDeSantis directs Secretary M. Lee to investigate Facebook’s alleged failures to comply with Florida’s election laws. The full text of the letter can be found here.

Internal documents obtained by the Wall Street Journal reveal the double standard that Facebook applies to its users. While most people are subject to arbitrary censorship at the whims of so-called fact-checkers, FB grants select users the freedom to disregard the platform’s own community standards without the threat of enforcement action.

If the Wall Street Journal report is accurate, Facebook has created a privileged class of speakers and has empowered them to manipulate our elections with impunity. Even more disturbing, these elite users on Facebook’s “whitelist” were allegedly selected by the tech giant behind closed doors. The selection process, scope, and real-world influence of the whitelist is concealed from the public and known only to Facebook. If true, this process may have provided a benefit to incumbent elected politicians over their challengers in state and local elections.

Floridians deserve to have faith that their elections are free from Big Tech interference, and corporations like Facebook deserve to be held accountable for actions that erode the legitimacy of our institutions.

Sharing a post on his official social media handle Governor DeSantis said that I am authorizing Florida Secretary of State, Laurel M. Lee and the Florida Department of State to open an investigation into Facebook’s alleged election interference through its whitelisting program. Floridians deserve to know how much Big Tech has influenced our elections. The post instantly hit with thousands of Retweets on Twitter and went viral.

Boebert argued that the Green New Deal and renewable energy sources are being forced upon people by the federal government, rather than allowing the market to decide. She further criticized the government's heavy subsidies for renewables, which she claimed were not truly renewable. Boebert also expressed her support for her own bill, H.R 1067, which she claimed would help reduce gas prices by providing certainty for energy producers.
